feat(skill-mcp): add HTTP transport support for remote MCP servers
Add support for connecting to remote MCP servers via HTTP in addition to
the existing stdio (local process) connections. This enables skills to
use cloud-hosted MCP servers and aggregated MCP gateways.
## Changes
- Extend SkillMcpManager to detect connection type from config:
- Explicit `type: "http"` or `type: "sse"` → HTTP connection
- Explicit `type: "stdio"` → stdio connection
- Infer from `url` field → HTTP connection
- Infer from `command` field → stdio connection
- Add StreamableHTTPClientTransport from MCP SDK for HTTP connections
- Supports custom headers for authentication (e.g., API keys)
- Proper error handling with helpful hints
- Maintain full backward compatibility with existing stdio configurations
## Usage
```yaml
# HTTP connection (new)
mcp:
remote-server:
url: https://mcp.example.com/mcp
headers:
Authorization: Bearer ${API_KEY}
# stdio connection (existing, unchanged)
mcp:
local-server:
command: npx
args: [-y, @some/mcp-server]
```
## Tests
Added comprehensive tests for:
- Connection type detection (explicit type vs inferred)
- HTTP URL validation and error messages
- Headers configuration
- Backward compatibility with stdio configs
